The cheat code for League One – Notes on Huddersfield Town’s 2-0 victory over Plymouth Argyle

Matches, Notes

Huddersfield Town had their best win of the season so far on Saturday when they beat Plymouth 2-0 on the south coast.

There were encouraging elements in Town's performance beyond just the result and some players that have previously struggled, showed their value to the team. It's worth noting that Plymouth were pretty bad, so much so that they looked like Town at their worst. But regardless of the opposition's failings, this was the positive result and performance Town needed and could potentially be a turning point in the season. Here's what I made of each player's performance… ...
